I am writing this to warn others before they join this franchise!

From the get go I should have knows that this business was a joke, but I went against my better judgment and invested my money anyway.

I was told coming into this that set up would be easy, cost low, and earnings would be VERY good. I was told this by the representative I spoke to, Sarah Willis. She introduced me to this business, and the opportunity. I met with her and spent time asking questions, and she had the answer at the ready for every one. The rules they set up cannot work for anyone! The business is a waste!

They say there is no competition, but I ran in to 2 other franchise owners in the field.

The investment was more than expected! Over $200,000 set up and store fees.

The training was a waste of my time. I could have learned what they told me out of a book and spent $15.50! The store I had to rent out cost me too much, and I had to set it up the way they wanted!!! I hired 2 people to work with me, and then had to let one go because I could not afford to pay him, and the other got the pink slip on Friday. I hated to do it, but I had to. I marketed to churches & places in my community and still made no money. Their proven method is trash! What a waste!

There are no buyers interested in the product! Buyers say it looks cheap. Sarah told me you do not need to have too much merchandised on hand, because it turns around so fast. YEAH RIGHT!

There is no support once you are out running business; you are virtually on your own.
I am now in the process of fighting off the bank for the money owed, and thinking of asking for my investment back. I would sell the company, but who would buy?!

SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE DON'T GET INTO BUSINESS WITH STAINED GLASS OVERLAY

Dear Rio Off Report

We have a strong network of franchisees across the United States and in 30 Countries around the world. We do not have one that fits the description of 'k from LA California'
In fact, we work hard to ensure our franchisees thrive in their business. We provide extensive support and we have had some franchisees for over 20 years. Our franchisees are successful, and our outstanding product is installed in over 9,000 homes across the country this year.

One of the strengths of this site appears to be that it investigates false complaints and sets the record straight when a complaint has been identified as false. So, I hope you will be willing to investigate this claim as it is proveably and completely false.

Sincerely

President
Stained Glass Overlay
